The Mystery Man (謎の男 Nazo no Otoko) was a storekeeper of the place Hiroshi lived in. He met his fate when he ventured into the Mansion to search for Mika, his daughter.
Story[]
The Storekeeper is seen at the start of Version 3.0 and the end of Version 6.23, in both versions he is seen running to the front door trying to escape. When he hears the oni, in fear, he tries to kick the door down. The oni then appears and eats him while he screams.
The Oni can be only seen eating him in Version 6.23.
In the mobile version, an extra chapter with him as the main character can be played. It's revealed that the reason he went to the mansion is because his daughter Mika went missing there. When he comes face to face with her, at first, he doesn't recognize her, but realizes who she is after she refuses to attack him a second time. He promises her that he will get help but after getting the key to the front door, he loses it when the oni takes it from him. He desperately tries to kick the door open but in the end is eaten.
Appearance[]
